Back to work after 2 weeks off. Not enjoying this.

Burns is spending time going in a loop on trams, unable to reach New Burns Cave. Road traffic accident has blocked the route so no point getting annoyed.

Are you still wearing the Prime mask? You can probably take it off now.

Does anyone mind if I just sit quietly in a corner and pretend to pay attention?
About all I'm good for.

I meant, 'about all I'm good for today'. Feeling pretty drained after the TFN adventure.

I don't want to go into detail online but the first couple of days in the new abode have been absolutely terrifying. I fear I will be calling the Police on a regular basis. I'm afraid to go out my front door. Deeply regret signing a year's lease.

Oh no! Is it worth checking what rights you have if the flat is not what you were led to believe it is?

That's terrible, Doc'. Yes definitely check stuff.

Another day of frantic calls to multiple agencies has yielded a result in about a week's time. Thankfully a family member will be about at the weekend or I would be elsewhere until it is safe.
Absolutely exhausted. Only my work experience has helped with knowing who to call and what to say. A neighbour had told me that nothing had been done previously.

No Lego cards in Sainsbury's this year I see. It's turned into Disney Heroes instead.

It would seem so. Hub formatting went weird for a while.

Northern rail are having a flash sale for September.
This has worked out pretty well, got 4 people to manchester for 80p (and spent another 40p on a later train for the second leg of the journey in case the first leg is late, this is Northern afterall). So £1.20 instead of £37 with railcards.

I would say that's quite a good deal!
I lament the loss of those network days you used to get, where you could travel anywhere for a fiver. I used to enjoy just going somewhere new and having a look around, or traveling on lines I hadn't before. You can't do that these days, it just costs too much.

I am extremely pleased to no longer using Northern Fail on a regular basis. I now get to work on time!
Also the Metro gives you FREE TAT.
